Man of 3 words at a time

Four words sometimes.

Four words sometimes.

Fanart? Never actually sent, but it’s of the taciturn elf ninja in a webcomic which went on haitus and then I forgot what it was named, although it was entertaining to read. Not terribly successful art, so I guess it doesn’t matter. I was going to send just the figure, but then I never did. Pickles.

If anyone knows the name of the comic that looks like it’s been done by an Order of the Stick style artist and has an elf who only says three words at a time, pokes fun at Final Fantasy and ‘ancient artifacts of power’, and has a maid who is a princess who is a maid, let me know, ‘kay?
EDIT: Aja reminded me (thanks!) that this webcomic is called Legendary. It’s pretty cool. But still on haitus. And sadly I can’t seem to get through to the archives. 😛

Rana in pen

Oooh, what's over there?

Oooh, what’s over there?

Ooh, a pen sketch that turned out really really good! At least, it did partly. Rana’s head is on the right, whereas Zela’s head somehow ended up getting attached to Rana’s body on the left. But Rana’s head turned out really well! It looks like her! That wide-eyed curious fascinated smile, with gentle eyebrows and smooth brown hair that does what she wants it to do mostly… I think she’s very pretty in this picture.

Super Team

Together, fighting vague evilness and corruption. Whoo!

Together, fighting vague evilness and corruption. Whoo!

These people appeared in a dream one night. From left to right, Leonardo, the strong guy. Quiet and reliable. Next is either Monica or Melinda, I can’t remember which. I think it was Monica. She’s the planner – very logical and quick-thinking. Next is Pi, a cat-girl who can fly. Finally is Sally, a sweet little girl who can infiltrate any facility with ease and innocence. She’s really very devious. The plot is something about Leonardo and Monica becoming orphaned and sent off to an evil government run orphanage and then busting out to prove that Leonardo was framed for a murder. Pi helps them get out and then just tags along – she has no family but never looks uncheerful. Sally is the daughter of some rich guy and she runs away because she feels caged. She is very self-reliant for an eight-year-old.

I’m afraid all this sounds terribly cliché, but hey, it was a dream. Also I know Leo is strong because he picked up a tree trunk.

Marth Doll

Mwahahahaaa!!! I shall dye everyone's hair bluuuuueeeee!!! ...No, that didn't make sense to me either.

If you switch Darth Maul’s initials, what do you get? <_< >_> ^_^ : D

I used my Darth Maul action figure for reference. The shoulders still aren’t right. But Marth is skinnier than Maul. This whole idea is my Dad’s joke. I like it.

Flairé in a wierd pose with a sword

Ooh, sexy. "... Do NOT call me that!"

Ooh, sexy. “… Do NOT call me that!”

Here be Flairé, posing with his sword prior to kicking some butt. The accompanying quote (F: Quote? from what? J: From something that will never be written.) is:
“…has the legs of a dancer and the muscles of an acrobat.”
Alex agrees that he does.
I like this picture! Despite the fact his arms and hands are too short/small.

Ceniro’s Animated Debut



Hey, a movie! This is my first video of Ceniro, made with Windows Movie Maker and Photoshop. Credit goes to Fire Emblem Planet for a couple of things and The Spriters Resource for others. I drew Ceniro and arranged the different images in Photoshop… the background, the nameplates, the HPs and percentages… it took a long time. And then came the creating of dozens of PNGs. The next movie is up to over 400 PNGs and is not even close to being finished! It would help if I worked on it once in a while… next summer, maybe! Anyway, putting in WMM wasn’t too hard. It’s just the animation takes forever. I have to make some major changes to the sprite… it doesn’t look right at all. I’m not sure how I’m going to do it, but I’ll figure it out eventually. Oh, and the sound was recorded straight from the GBA using the microphone plugged into the computer. Right from the FE7 Sound Room. It stutters at the end because I wasn’t sure how to use the microphone so it didn’t make the sound file all in one go.
